I guess he needed to spend more time with his pastor so that that influence could rub off on him.

This wouldn't work.

In a short squeeze the "squeezee" is short TSLA calls. The way to hedge a TSLA call is to buy the TSLA shares you might be forced to deliver.

Additionally if you are short TSLA stock, then you have a carrying cost and a margin requirement, and must cover both. These will increase if the market moves against you.

If you are long TSLA you don't have a margin requirement (without margin), your only carrying cost is your cost of capital, which for many investors is conceptually zero.

As for the puts, if you are short TSLA puts that means you are essentially short cash. To offset your short position you have to raise cash, but it's not rational to assume that you would do so by selling TSLA shares, nor could you be forced to.

I thought this was a Wendy's...

What would be the benefit of a moon colony compared to building the same environment in, say, the Sahara desert? It's not like Earth has a shortage of open space. Pretty much anywhere on Earth would be easier to live in than the moon.

If only there was some cost effective means of disposing of a mountain of cocaine. Surely someone has an idea.

But they said Brexit would make us better off!

Hope hating the Browns was worth it for you.

"Nice car. Did it come with a turn signal?"

That was legit funny.

Not only that I heard he posted a picture of Uranus.

Not "it wasn't that bad", "it isn't as bad". I want voter intimidation investigated and prosecuted. But when it's the government there isn't likely to be any investigation (if there is any reporting).

"The authorities" hold the monopoly of force, so there's not really a "greater authority" to appeal to.

These kinds of incidents aren't so bad. No official intimidation, and nothing that would really interfere with voting. Also if there are reports it shows people are taking it seriously.

The long lines in Atlanta (which I haven't heard of this year) are a bigger concern for me.

What kind of bees give milk?

Maybe she expected him to pay up front, but got mad when E gypt her.

In Africa U ganda expect it.

That's bound to help with inflation.

I have no doubt that this is part of the thinking. The animals are victims of the system, whereas the prisoners are conscious actors who deserve what they get. The animals are being stored until adoption, while the prisoners are being punished.

A lot people think prisons should be made as inhumane as possible as a deterrence to crime (or because they view criminals as inherently a different species of being, outside the human community). Humane countries such as Denmark and Netherlands have very humane treatment for their small number of prisoners.

True, but it's a dynamic system. Powell's statement doesn't mean that the peak Fed Rate must exceed the peak inflation rate. Just that the overnight rate must exceed inflation before equilibrium can be achieved. The Overnight rate may need to go up more, but inflation could also come down (it has).

Spy -20% from peak. Down for 11 months.

XLE down 2% from peak. Down for 4 months.

Perhaps the video is being taken from a geosynchronous orbit? Or a still photograph?

That's what I was thinking too. I think giving out toilet paper is a better idea.

The biggest driver of inflation worldwide are currently energy, weapons and food.

The US is a major exporter of all three. So even if the US is suffering inflation, everyone else will feel it worse.

Didn't Key and Peele do a sketch about this?

I was going to say: that does sound an awful lot like kidnapping. Also, couldn't the intervention be justified on the basis of "hot pursuit"? I realize that may not work on international claims, but as others have mentioned, what's China going to do about it? Close the consulate?

If you're not going to lock him up for life, that means he's getting out sometime. Nine victims certainly seems like a candidate for a life sentence.
